Adam Lambert has been wildly successful as a solo artist AND has fronted one of the most iconic bands of all time... Stepping into the biggest shoes ever... and NAILING IT!
As singers, we can learn a lot from Adam. His showmanship is impeccable, but when you dig specifically into his singing, you hear clever and intentional restraint, a beautifully dialed in mixed voice and subtle use of compression and placement to make up one of the most beautiful, yet accessible singing approaches out there today!
Let's be inspired, try some things with our own voices and see what happens!! You'll probably learn some great vocal licks for your bag of tricks!
hey dude, just wanted to drop in and post this to the public. I'm on week 5/6 of the discover your voice course. I have never had so much fun in correcting all my bad habits. I've sang for over 10 years as a pro musician on the gigging scene. I own Ken Tamplins course, don't get me wrong I love ken, he's a lovely guy and an amazingly talented vocalist/ teacher and I have learnt many, many things from him, but, the way that you teach Chris, reaches me and clicks in my brain. Since the lesson of removing tension I have removed a decades worth of neck strain in one 20 minute video haha, it's honestly a surreal experience for me, I sing stuff from Johnny Cash to AC DC, I have never gone easy on my voice ha, and your course is allowing me to honestly sing however I feel like when I wake up haha. For anyone reading this considering Chris's course, I can't recommend it highly enough. Cheers Chris :)
Man thanks for sharing and I’m soooo happy to hear that you’ve found freedom and a new level of creativity with your voice!! Keep up the journey!!!
To me, he is up there with “The Voice” Steve Perry, Sam Cooke, Stevie Wonder, Whitney Houston, ALL the greats!
Adam Lambert is the best singer I've ever seen. I admire his vocal technique and the way he masterfully uses his vocal instrument. He is a huge inspiration.
Finally someone else who agrees
Check out David Phelps
@@MultiEMitchell If you're talking to me, yes, I checked David years ago, but I think Adam is a genre-wise universal performer, because he sings fantastic rock, pop, funk, soul, blues, jazz, Broadway, reggae, country, disco, dance, house, gospel, EDM ... and even Christmas Carols. As a teenager he was trained for 1 year in opera singing. Also Lambert's vocal range is greater. Live he's absolutely amazing, because hits these 5ve octave notes in chest or mixed voice with ease! Most male singers can't drag pure chest past the upper 4th octave
@@diananik7953 you would probably like John Farnham
@@kevo0830 Of course. John, Queen, fronted by Adam Lambert, have performed at a huge benefit concert in Sydney Fire Fight Australia Bushfire Relief for 80,000 people in February 2020. QAL also performed You're The Voice during their Australian gigs from 2020 The Rhapsody World Tour. At the height of his career, John hit the G5 in a full or mixed voice. Adam goes higher to the end of the fifth octave - A5 - B5 notes.
Adam Lambert is one of my favorite vocalists of all time! I aspire to sing the same way he does. Thank you so much for making a video about him, Chris!
Oh wow. I'm trying really hard not to make comparisons between you and another very popular singing coach on youtube (one that has been mentioned here already...) You are SO. MUCH. BETTER. And I'm compelled to say this because the other one just bothers me a lot. The way you express the processes of Adam's body, like him "allowing the notes to come" makes so much sense to me. The language you use is very easy to internalize into body awareness! Plus there's no arrogance or an endless desire to prove you're better than the other coaches. Refreshing.
I love the way you broke down some bits of Adam Lambert's technique and demonstrated what&how he is doing it, I know you can't fit everything into one video, but maybe the next time you can also comment on his extraordinary breathing - which is really essential for singers and which is like the basis for other technical stuff. And Adam Lambert is the perfect example of how he uses breath to support his powerful voice and reach all those high notes with resonance and being able to sing long phrases (even over 20 sec). I think he is the best male vocalist I've ever heard, and I really enjoyed your video, thanks!
We shouldn't it take it for granted that we're watching the best vocal coach on UA-cam! You continue to amaze me, one can only wish to one day reach your skill level and deep understanding of singing :D
Very kind! I'm so glad you've continued to find so much value in my videos!
7:12 -- so well said! That is how it feels indeed when you hear him sing.
My favorite singer 💞 Mr adam lambert
I WAITED SO LONG FOR THIS ONE
YES, ive been suggesting him for a bit, the cher tribute was AWESOME
Thank you for your analysis & breaking it down..... One of my favorites was years ago when Adam Lambert performed "Mad World" on American Idol!
Sir, you really need to read this. I LITERALLY search "how to sing like Adam lambert" because I'm a big fan of him and I also love singing, and I want to be better. So this video is on the top so I click on it. The thing that surprise me is... you're actually can sing exactly like him and your voice is pretty high and powerful compared to when you're speaking, like this is the closest thing to Adam lambert's voice I've ever seen so far. That mean you're teaching a real thing and you can clearly proof it. Even though I know his voice is higher than average male, but you helped me alot. I'm subscribing form now on, good work!!! 👍
Really enjoyed this video!
I'm a vocal coach with a master's degree in music education, specializing in vocals and I have been teaching as my full time job for 12 years now.
I very rarely care for "How to sing..." videos, but this was some really good stuff.
Love your approach and how you executed it, both explaining and showing.
Inspirational! Thank you!
So glad you liked it!
@@chrisliepe I saw Adam with Queen a couple of years ago and I usually can shut off my "work brain" during shows, but the guy was SO amazing. I didn't hear a single thing that I didn't like.
I don't care what people say, but the passage in "Bohemian..." where they have footage from an old live clip with Freddie wasn't even needed. I would have been totally fine without it, since Adam was so damn good.
The look on students faces when they get it. It's priceless.
In my opinion he is the best singer in his generation.
Back on this video after a few months, thank you again for doing it! I feel so lucky that I could hear Adam live a few times, he is absolutely incredible, one of the few who is even better live then on the records. Always good to hear what a vocal coach has to say about his singing.
This is a video I'm VERY excited about!
I love this video. You are awesome!
Thank you SO MUCH Chris!!! I've been trying to learn Lambert's songs and style lately and you came out with a lesson just in time. Thnx so much again!!!🥳
This is a fantastic description of how Adam Lambert creates his unique sound!! Another vocal coach only spent 5 minutes brushing off how he sings. Just subscribed to hear more of your reactions. By the way, l over your voice as well!!
Thanks for the sub!! Check out my "in the style of" playlist... You can binge there until I put more of these out :) (which is soon)
He Is really a cool Singer 🤘🏻🎤
Not my preferred music style but Is cool 🤘🏻
Your analysis of Adam's voice is amazing!! Thank you so much!!
You're so welcome!
This is really interesting Chris, job well done on my favorite Artist Adam Lambert
wonderful in depth analysis of a few passages, but Adam Lambert has so many different registers and voices, it feels like we need more parts to this. For his musical theater voice(s), I recommend A.L Webber's '
Love the detail you put into these videos! The nuances of technique & vocal production can really make all the difference when it comes to nailing these styles. Keep up the awesome work!
Love you chris always big thanks for making this video. Hope ur stayin healthy and safe
Best vocalist in the world right now !!
I love the way you demonstrated the higher note as you said it. I'm currently enrolled in your course now, just got done with the getting started section, I love it so far, and already notice a difference in my singing. Support is so essential, and the "poop muscle" idea and the speak it before you sing it really helped a lot.
Wow. This is sooo much more than an analysis of Adam’s vocals. Wow. Learned a lot. Great job. Subscribed.
Thanks for the sub!! So glad you enjoyed it Karen!
Dude, you helped me restore the will to sing. You are awesome!
Your videos are incredible! I improve so much just with your videos!!
Been waiting so long for this! Amazing! So happy :)
Now waiting for AC/DC stuff!
P.S. And you improved so much with your videos! So faster and smoother telling from you
You're about to create a whole world of new singers, and you're becoming huge on UA-cam, and thank you for helping me as a vocalist as well ♥️
You're so welcome! And I hope so! I hope more and more people discover how to do cool stuff with their voices!
So many different examples you show that makes it way wayyy easier for me to learn. Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Chris your videos and your program has helped me so much! can't thank you enough
Great to hear!
Damn it. Now I have another song to add to my repertoire.
Great man! Still waiting for the Luis Miguel and Tom Chaplin videos!
Cooool, you are the best vocal teacher😍
Chris Liepe, do you have only 3 lessons in your free vocal course?
Please make a video on how to sing like Jon Bon Jovi. Can’t find any videos on UA-cam that break down his singing in an effective way. Thanks!
Would love this
7:36 amazing demonstration. I know its easy to you at this point, and it should be with proper technique, but right now I can only imagine doing that. I am confident that your course combined with a lot of practice over quite some time will help me get there.
You're exceptional ❤❤❤
Have you heard Dan Vasc from utube you’ll get a shock how versatile his voice is .Adam is brilliant
Man you’re the man of my dreams chris
hehe, thanks!
Thanks Chris.
Can't thank you enough....
Haven’t watched it yet though 😁gonna watch now...
Love from Bangladesh 🥰
Great to see some more BD fans of Chris ☺️
I'd love a tutorial on Paul singing I'm Down, Helter Skelter, and especially Oh Darlin. You rock, Mr. Liepe!!!
RE: Paul, all the gritty stuff, and his shift into clear mixed voice and falsetto. I guess that would pretty well cover it. As you can tell, I'm a Paul fan. Cheers!
Hi Chris! Great Video again. Really like the differences you showed between Freddie and Adam, both really great and spot on, just a little different approach, Very inspiring. And that Cher cover..... Better than she sung it ever "I Believe"..... May I request (again :-) ) some Sebastian Bach stuff, from Skid Row. I really know for sure You will Love to hear Quicksand Jesus, his voice is one of the best Rocking Screams I heard on that song. Still working on your Discover Your Voice course, which is very helpfull! Thanks for everything
You're so welcome!! Keep in touch as you work through the course!
Chris you’re the best… Please do a video on “Little Richard”.
You should listen to the live version of better than I know myself ..the one he did on Ellen show ....btw it's really difficult to analyze such an incredible voice with only two live performances ..
I'll definitely check that out!
Yes, it feels like the video finished too early! 😁
Lzzy from Halestorm next please!!
It's been filmed! Scheduled for release soon!
@@chrisliepe Yayyy thank you!!
This is so great. Could really use more videos about singing clean, clean singers, etc. Thank you!! 💗
Also love Adam Lambert's singing! 😊 The analysis on this was great, especially comparing him to Freddy
I agree! :)
Pleasure to listen
I've been wanting to suggest this for a while: Björn Strid from Soilwork. Amazing range, great screaming, signature tone with his low larynx sound, falsetto, great layering. If you're not into them, you'll find a lot to dive in!
I love how he sang in the Burning Hearts cover. It wasn't just Soilwork, Scar Symmetry's guitarist was in that too. I can't remember all the musicians in it off the top of my head.
I like the new intro!
Thanks!
Can I suggest a vocal analysis for Dave Gahan from Depeche Mode?
Great baritone with great voice and range.
One of my favorite voices. A unique voice.
Thanks so much
Dude! Wow. (wow)
10:56 "born" is one of my favorite Chris Liepe notes ever
hehe... NICE :) Glad you liked!
PLEASE do a tutorial on how to get as much grit and airy cleans as yungblud
Chris, actually do a video on old rock ‘n’ roll screams .. Little Richard, John Lennon etc… thank you in advance.
Have you done one of these covering Daron Malakian from soad and scars on broadway? I know you've covered serj but daron has a super distinct voice and really holds up on his own
This is the level i want to get i stuggle with mixed voice from chest an where in lockdown so its youtubr but your videos are awesome mate probably the best on youtube that ive seen
Keep with it! Have you checked out my other videos on mixed voice yet?
Could you show how to sing “Whataya Want from Me”? Please 🙏🏻
Hey Chris, I'd still be super interested to see an analysis of Jonny Hawkins of Nothing More. Their single This is the Time was rated Octane's top rock song of the last decade, and they take advantage of some really unique audio techniques to accentuate his voice.
He also has an interesting vibrato technique that I haven't seen from other artists that you can see in live performances (Jenny - SiriusXM live acoustic is a good example) that I'd like to see your input on.
Thank you for making such great content! I would love if you could analyze Billie Joe Armstrong from Green Day. Keep up with the videos!
You're VERY welcome and great suggestion!
You should do George Michael 😎😉😍
Hey Chris, probably more people have asked you to do a video on Tatiana, the singer from Jinjer. If not, that's a suggestion, a difficult one maybe, but maybe a challenge too...
Great idea!
When's the How to Sing like Lady Gaga? She has a very powerful voice.
It's been filmed... prolly next week will come out!
@@chrisliepe YESSS, very nice!
Hello Sir! When will we get Pete from Chevelle! New song came out a couple days ago! Love to hear your input!
oh, that'd be good timing! will get on this!
I love it. Great stuff as always.
Cheers Twist
P. S. I sent you an email Chris. I'm still having trouble getting started. Uhhhhgggg.
You should check out josh Ramsay’s vocals he’s such a talented singer
11:31 Mine sounds like I stepped on my cat's tail.
Mine too the first 100 times :)
Please put subtitles in Spanish to the videos, it would be very good, your work is great, thank you very much and I wait for the subtitles please
You should do a video like this about Alex Newell. His voice seems so unique, I'm pretty sure he's considered a male soprano. His range is insane and he seems to be comfortable singing in nearly any part of it. The sheer power behind his voice is incredible. Also just the energy he puts into most of his performances is amazing, he's really animated and fun to watch; especially in his performances of Mama Will Pride (which he sung on broadway. Either the music video one and the Tony performance would do, but I'd recommend the Tony performance since he threw in a Bb6 whistle tone in that one. But they're both worth watching), Poor Unfortunate Souls (not his most vocally impressive performance but his sheer stage presence in that one is absolutely breathtaking, especially in the one he did in the Disney virtual pride concert thing),
Some of his other performances that are really worth checking out are his performances of I Am Changing (particularly the one on The Cabaret), I Know Where I've Been (honestly any of his performances of this song would do, they're all amazing), and there's probably a few other ones that I can't think of right now.
You don't even have to react to all of these, but Alex is just really worth at least checking out.
Hello Chris! Watching your channel lately really helped me start learning how to sing. All of those tips you give in your vids were really useful. I just have a question, as a started moving to the notes higher up in my range I noticed that no matter how hard I try they seem to come out more as a loud wheeze, like "I've lost my voice" type sound. I couldn't have damaged it, I didn't attempt anything hard at this point. I presume it's something that I can get rid off with practice, but I still have doubts, could it be some kind of an issue with my vocal chords? Hope this makes sence. Thx in advance!
I seriously doubt its a problem with your cords. It's an issue with your muscles being trained incorrectly and competing what you want to do. You can absolutely train that out. Have you signed up for my free course yet?
@@chrisliepe Thank you for your reply! I'll be sure to sign up!
You actually do sound quite like him in these examples.
Hi Chris is it fine to ask for a request? i really want to know Taka from ONE OKE ROCK's singing technique especially his way of singing on their song called The Beginning, my voice keep getting tired really fast every time i tried to sing it so i'm kinda stuck right now and need some help...
Great suggestion!
Thank you for this video. Why is it so short? I would've loved to see the part 2, maybe more explanation about Adam's upper range? 🎶🎤
trying to keep my videos more concise... see if I can improve view duration and hold people's interest longer. Most people don't watch very much of the longer sing like videos.... but who knows what the google gods really do or think .... :)
@@chrisliepe I see, thanks. Really enjoyed this analysis, comparison to Freddie and going to watch it again...while waiting for the part 2😁
comment for support :)
Thank you!
Do you relax your solar plexus and let it get caught up by the pressure in your body so it kicks outward when you produce notes??
I know that’s a pretty specific question but I’m testing a theory. 🙃
The solar plexus should be as relaxed as it can be with the poop muscles engaged and should not be the focus of 'push' or energy. What's your theory?
@@chrisliepe my theory is that relaxing the solar plexus means that your body has to get push from elsewhere, namely the poop muscles, as you say. Also, that this tip has been hiding in plain sight from me for years because a bunch of vocal coaches have been saying it and I somehow missed it. Tensing up my solar plexus has messed me up for yearssss. It’s like it’s joined directly to the throat and so causes my throat to tense if I tense it. weird.
Just yours move outwards when you sing, just as a result of it being relaxed and getting pushed by pressure elsewhere in your body?
Can you do Brian Aubert from Silversun Pickups? He has an extremely melodic and clean sounding fry scream that I would love to get tips on nailing.
(I noticed he steps towards the microphone when adding aggression which was an epiphany back in the day when I first started out, I realized it's an indicator of great technique!)
Take a look at Kissing Families live on Carson Daly and Panic Switch live on David Letterman for the sound I'm looking for
Most vocal instructors online just seem to lump it into "singing with fry" and then assume that's all you need, not very helpful!
And not a request, but ever listened to Jimmy Gnecco from the band Ours? I think you'd enjoy his singing a lot
Gnecco is one of my favorite singers of all time.
@@chrisliepe Haha, well, I guess I was right!
Hey Chris, every time I try to get into my mix,I can reach the first few notes but then my fry engages too much and it becomes a vocal fry scream..
What can I do?
Sounds like you need to spend more time feeling your pure head voice. Get that coordination and be comfortable singing cleanly across the whole spectrum first... before you start adding more air. Your cords are not handling the air you're giving them when you're inching higher... so they disengage... turning it into fry. Have you joined my free course yet?
Yes I've joined your free course
Hey wanted to reach out and say thanks for the videos they are a huge help. I'm currently trying to stretch myself in singing Judas in Jesus Christ Superstar. Any recommendations on how to hit those high rock notes?
Have you seen Adam Lambert's old performance of Heaven on Their Minds yet? It's mind blowing. Chris should make a video exploring Adam's upper range, fingers crossed....
Cryin’ by’ Steven Tyler please.
hey chris, brother luv your stuff man, you are awesome 💯 for you to tell me about my voice, I would seriously relish that oppurtunity. I think i can sing very well. BUT, id love for you to critique
I offer listening feedback for students enrolled in my course! Chrisliepe.com
How about Renato Russo? That voice is beautifull.
Hi chris. My first time of commenting your video. "How to sing like Michael Jackson or Bon Jovi?"
Thanks for your first comment! :) GREAT IDEAS... ON THE LIST!!
dude its FRICKING IMPOSSIABLE TO SING LIKE HIM
It IS totally possible to "sing like" him
Conchita Wurst did it, and you can too, Kristen!
@@papabearM3 Trying to learn more about Adam, good troll! 😅
@@lararoostalu9318
No, about Chris! Love him!
@@papabearM3 Hahaha, have a day off trolling Adam.
Comment for da algorithm
Streak count: 37
Do how to sing Bruno Mars
I'll do another one soon, but this will do ya for now: ua-cam.com/video/JEWZ9xyrRZw/v-deo.html
First!!!
But doesn’t the vocal range plays a big part of it?
His range is DEVELOPED, not just bestowed upon him. He has worked hard and anyone with the right methods and discipline can develop a great range as well!
@@chrisliepe i’m a bass -baritone for over 15 years and i know i could not hit those high notes because my vocal chords are too thick ,even if i’ll train 7/7 this pitch is unreachable for me
@@chrisliepe you are totally wrong here. Not anyone can hit Lamberts notes even with 50 years of hard work training, just not gonna happen!!
I would love to see Brendon Urie. Especially as he’s being considered a modern day Freddie Mercury. Great stuff as always though.
I've done this one: ua-cam.com/video/kD9E6yJQg5w/v-deo.html
Not quite the same format, but still a cool video... I actually cover a full Panic! song in that one too!
@@chrisliepe Yes you do it was my introduction to Emperor's New Clothes and now I'm in love with it thanks to you
Great video! I'll always prefer Freddie Mercury. He felt what he was singing and made us all feel his feelings.
It's not a competition though. It's fine to appreciate both artists for different reasons. 😁
@@lararoostalu9318 I agree. It's just my opinion. You're in your perfect right to think different.
I respect every opinion. 😊❤
This is not about Freddie it's about Adam !!! Dahhh
@@deborahjohnson9701 I can't believe this answer... Yes. It's about Marc...
But I decided to say that.
I don't think it's a problem.
Freddie’s voice and his tone was compared to that of a screaming goat on live performances by music critics in 70-80s !!
He’s never tried to be Freddie, he is a PHENOMENAL singer superstar and has publicly said that is why Brian and Roger chose him. NOT fair or “neat” to compare him, he is his own vocalist. Listen to more of his work. Not cool man. He has a vocal range beyond any other.
You want to discredit Adam Lambert at all costs. If you're so good, why don't you sing with Queen and why don't you have solo albums and full houses like Adam Lambert. Studio recordings are amplified, but Adam Lambert often sang a cappella and was fantastic, just like on the records, without any tricks. You howl on You Tube, but I think you know that it's not enough to make a career. You have to have personality and something. You're not Adam Lambert, so you won't sing like him. Adam Lambert is ONE.
I'm not discrediting Adam Lambert, I really like his voice and love learning from singers that are way better than me... And Adam is certainly one of those singers. I fully realize I'm not Adam Lambert. I greatly enjoy trying things out with my own voice while being inspired by singers I respect. I get ideas, I improve and I help others do the same. You sound unhappy and defensive in your comment. If you're not here to learn with me, please just move on.
